Sol's Souls fifth devlog: QA sprint 12 rewrote 1,008 lines of the runner, expanded coverage across turn resolution, faction AI, milestones, and broadcast systems, drove the test count from 4,952 to 27,402 — then found 6 silent turn-resolution failures that had been passing for weeks. Fixed in commit 23897e6. Final state: 27,402 pass / 0 fail / 1,299 screenshots. Plus ITCH_STORE.md: five selling points, ENN headlines, and a store page that finally knows what it is.
